Not only that, but the song itself is 23 years old, and doesn’t seem to have changed much in that entire amount of time.

Illusion1987 Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 I think it's going to drop at midnight EST. Which song, or songs, I don't know but most likely The General or Perhaps Too much smoke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was called Hardschool back in 2000, and that makes sense from the lyrics, and released as Hard Skool, too, why was it temporarily called Jackie Chan back in 2008? It makes no sense why they should change the name to Jackie Chan. I get that it would have worked as a working title if it was intended for a Jackie Chan action movie, as a placeholder name, but 2008 was long after that happened. Could it be that Axl is wrong and thinks of another song, the one that was actually intended for the movie? This could explain why neither Duff or Slash has confirmed they worked on Hard School - they didn't, because it isn't the song intended for Jackie Chan. Well, just a hypothesis. That’s what I always thought too. Or he was just speaking gibberish to confuse everyone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstar Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 From what I understand, this backstage tour and Q&A thing with Tom Mayhue is part of the VIP package, so I suppose it takes place at every show. That begs the question if it was the first time he was asked about new music or if it was the first time he answered such questions. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIKOZ3 Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 1 hour ago, alangarcianr said: Perhaps and the general WILL be released. problem is when… I mean, we all heard the song and we all know about the general for more than 15 years. Release the damn thing unless they want to release a documentary of the EU + US tour with the songs. That makes a bit more of sense in delaying the releases (it was mentioned that there was a filming crew in some of the shows + the band posting rehearsals footage and some nice images of the tour) edit: as I was typing the band just uploaded some more new nice images of the tour (these are clearly shot with a Pro camera, nothing that an iPhone or even a S23 could make) What's the point of releasing The General now, without a backing album and knowing the band will be taking a break in 2024? Slash has concerts scheduled for the 24th with the solo band ... It makes no sense to launch the heavy artillery now! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gigigil Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 I want to be hopeful here. They've been back together since 2016, they all have material and it seems they're working on it. This time, there's no law suits, no people in and out, no doing and redoing stuff. So, I'd say, if there's no falling out, there will be a new album in 2 or 3 years. Their tour is going really well, so they have to take this momentum. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimisbatman Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 The irony is if they released an album AND toured it for 4 years the album would do very well with all the support. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that I re-watched it, I realized that he wasn't answering to a question but brought the subject up himself. Kind of like the Duff quote - the writer of the German Classic Rock article emphasized on the fact that Duff casually dropped the "news soon" line. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axl promoted CD from 2001-2010. How long would he milk a new album? Probably until retirement. Edited July 14, 2023 by Sosso 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any forum members here doing the VIP tour at future shows? Maybe someone can ask him more specifically about it. Interesting that he brought it up himself. I'm sure they all know that word would spread fast online just like it did about the soundchecks.

Blackstar Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Maybe "trying" was just a figure of speech and doesn't mean anything really. Or maybe they want to do a simultaneous digital and physical release this time and they're waiting for the physical copies to be ready. We'll see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sounds like a great way to not have to answer any more questions and stop doing a Q&A on the VIP Tour Brilliant if done purposely 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
